Also, I have signed Jack De Golia to produce Volume IV: Resurgence of Ancient Darkness in audio, and that should, God willing and the creek don’t rise, be out by Thanksgiving! We are well on our way to having the entire Lost Tales series out in audio, a goal I hope to have completed within the next year.

Work on Volume VIII of the Lost Tales is going well, and I am hoping for an early 2017 release of it. Those of you that always ask about him will be happy to know that Phoenix does have a cameo or three in it.

I promised a chance to win a signed hardcover copy of The Enemy of an Enemy. Well, I am going to one up that and give you TWO chances. For your first chance, head over to:

And complete the simple ten question survey. Make sure you drop a valid email address for you in the last question, or there will be no way for you to win.

For a second chance at winning, send an email to [email protected] with the subject “I KNOW THE ANSWER” and tell me which book:

Is by a female author

Won the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award: Grand Prize and Young Adult Fiction Winner (both in same year)

Starts its first chapter with the line “I do not require life to be neat and orderly.”

Has a female protagonist who was born hundreds of years before her grandmother

Ah, heck, how about a third chance? Many of you have read books by Susan Quinn. Well, she is a friend of mine and has been a big help to me in getting my writing career out of the mud it was stuck in for years. Well her son, Adam Quin, recently released his first book. I have not read it yet, but I am fully expecting it to be excellent based on all I know about it.

So, for your third entry, find his book on Amazon and send an email to [email protected] with the subject “ADAM QUINN FOR THE WIN,” and include the first line of the book.

So, see? Easy stuff. Three easy chances to win a signed hardcover of The Enemy of an Enemy and you do not even have to sit through any political speeches!

NOTE: The cut-off for entries to win is STEPMBER 30th, 11:59 P.M. EDT.

Thanks for being such great readers, and please continue to spread the word about the books. Personal recommendations are still the best form of advertising out there!
